    OK, so I'll pass the torch to @jfriedm56 because because he had the correct grade but his "+" key was defective.

    I will be unresponsive for abt 24hrs soon, and some of you have nervous nelly syndrome :# .

    Pictures are too fuzzy to tell precisely. I am unsure of MS65 or 66, but I will guess MS66RB.

    I believe it’s wood grained as were many of the Indian and Lincoln cents coming out of the San Francisco mint that year. And as I’ve come to know, wood grain is the result of improperly mixed alloys.

    That was my bad. I was looking at the wrong coin. The 1909-S VDB. I didn't mean to insult @jfriedm56. :#
